Every day, we strive to help our clients who might be experiencing difficulties with tinnitus, muffled hearing or possible hearing loss. There are many types of hearing loss that can affect a person’s quality of life including sensorineural, conductive or even a mixture of these conditions. A hearing test at the Gabriola Island NexGen Hearing Clinic can determine the precise nature and severity of your hearing loss. Our RHIP will use the results of your hearing test to provide you with a hearing aid that will suit your specific needs. We offer free hearing tests for all clients at our clinic.
Have peace of mind knowing that your hearing aid is backed by a 21 day no-money down trial, and a 90 day money back satisfaction guarantee. We will also price match any valid competitor quote or advertised price on the same make and model of hearing instrument. That way, you’re guaranteed to get the best value on your purchase. With our commitment to quality customer service, you can expect us to deliver the highest level of professional hearing aid care from the moment you walk in the door.

ANSWERS ABOUT HEARING AIDS AND MORE
Frequently Asked Questions
Hearing aid prices vary from several hundred dollars up to a few thousand, and it all depends on the technology level in each device. Affordable hearing aids and the more expensive options come with different features and capabilities.
⠀
You can think of hearing aids as coming in levels of gold, silver, or bronze. If your listening needs are simple, it just might be that even the most basic hearing aid is enough for you. If your life is more active and you find yourself wanting to hear better in more active and noisy listening environments, then a more sophisticated level of hearing aid features will give you more benefit.
⠀
NexGen Hearing also offers financing options to help you with an affordable option to improve your hearing. Learn more about our lease to hear financing and other hearing aid financing options.
- Voices sounding muffled or unclear
- Not being able to tell where a sound is coming from (known as localization)
- Needing higher volume settings on televisions, stereos and headphones
- Trouble differentiating between foreground and background noise
We do perform cerumen management at a small number of our NexGen Hearing clinics, most clinics prefer to provide this service to existing clients only. If you are a new client call ahead to find out which clinic offers cerumen management please call us at 1 (877) 606 6671.
If you have any history of outer ear pathology or ear infections, we recommend you see your family doctor.
- Smoking (studies show that smokers experience more hearing loss than non-smokers)
- Genetics
- Medical Conditions
- Medications
- Sickness
- Repeated Exposure to Loud Noises
The act of not wearing a hearing aid in itself will not make your hearing get worse. What can make your hearing get worse is not wearing a hearing aid and needing to increase the volume on things like televisions, radios, and headphones, or needing people you are talking with to talk louder. We recommend you wear your hearing aid as directed by your doctor and audiologist. However, if you are not wearing your hearing device, be sure not to overdo it with turning up the volume.
